Fraser & Kingsway

The holy triangle where Fraser Street crosses Kingsway and dashes your expectations that all of Vancouver is arranged in a grid. What used to be a gritty hood, is now a hipster paradise thanks to one fancy French bistro and a cool coffee shop. Since then, new gems are popping up like pimples. What do we love about this neighbourhood? The good places are still here.

Pho Long

Everyone in Vancouver needs a solid Pho place within rainy-night walking distance. Peel off your rain jacket and order a hot bowl of number 6 with extra basil and lime while your inner-chill dissipates. Jumbo fish tanks, Asian music videos, and excessive neon signage will offer extra entertainment while you wait for your brothy-goodness to arrive. They also have amazing Vietnamese iced coffee to jumpstart your evening.
